Confirmed by JK the blank squad numbers are for new players who will join b4 the start of the season.

Any names rumoured?
What positions would u like to see?

Id certanly wand a couple more forwards and probably a utility back who can cover in the halves

The key words from John yesterday were before the League season starts on April 4th, so that ties in with the start of Super League.

We know that once the Super League clubs have had their pre-season games and their season starts, that players who have little chance of regular first-team action will be available to other clubs.

Agree 100% . Possible long term loan deals for SL players down the pecking orders at their clubs. Sound like names have already been agreed going on JKs interview

Spoken to a. Journo mate reckons one deffo coming around April can’t name names though... another name I’ve heard mentioned is Adam Tangata Wakey need his quota spot for chase Stanley apparently

No quota spot needed for Stanley, he was under contract at Toronto so has dispensation.

Although Chester has said he is still looking overseas and we are at the full quota as it stands, Tangata is the only player I could see leaving.

He would be a good signing for you, he was a very good championship player before and he has improved a lot in a full time environment with us since he joined.

Well I have faith Kear will sign players in the position we need ( prop) rather than the bad days of signing 10 wingers when we were desperate for a HB.
